Retrospective Case Study to Validate Existing Chemoresponse Marker Test in Ovarian, Peritoneal or Fallopian Cancer Cases
Summary
The purpose of this study is to improve upon and validate the prognostic and/or predictive accuracy of a drug response marker by the development of improved alternative algorithms based on the actual clinical outcome of retrospective cases.
Description
This is a multicenter, retrospective chart review study of de-identified drug response marker results and a limited data set of clinical outcome data. Data from approximately 512 cases will be collected from approximately 30 sites and correlated to the secondary endpoints identified in order to produce a training set that will incorporate additional improvements to the existing ChemoFx scoring system. The outcome of progression free survival will be defined as the period of time between the first dose of chemotherapy following the report of the marker result until clinical progression or death. Objective response will be measured from the first dose of chemotherapy following the report of the marker result until progression or change in therapy.

Hereditary Breast And Ovarian Cancer Syndrome
Autosomal dominant HEREDITARY CANCER SYNDROME in which a mutation most often in either BRCA1 or BRCA2 is associated with a significantly increased risk for breast and ovarian cancers.
Topotecan
An antineoplastic agent used to treat ovarian cancer. It works by inhibiting DNA TOPOISOMERASES, TYPE I.
Primary Ovarian Insufficiency
Cessation of ovarian function after MENARCHE but before the age of 40, without or with OVARIAN FOLLICLE depletion. It is characterized by the presence of OLIGOMENORRHEA or AMENORRHEA, elevated GONADOTROPINS, and low ESTRADIOL levels. It is a state of female HYPERGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM. Etiologies include genetic defects, autoimmune processes, chemotherapy, radiation, and infections.
Ovarian Failure, Premature
Cessation of ovarian function after MENARCHE but before the age of 40, without or with OVARIAN FOLLICLE depletion. It is characterized by the presence of OLIGOMENORRHEA or AMENORRHEA, elevated GONADOTROPINS, and low ESTRADIOL levels. It is a state of female HYPERGONADOTROPIC HYPOGONADISM. Etiologies include genetic defects, autoimmune processes, chemotherapy, radiation, and infections.
Tumor Protein P73
A homolog of p53 TUMOR SUPPRESSOR PROTEIN that encodes full-length trans-activating and N-terminally-truncated (DeltaN) isoforms. Detection of splice variants and isoforms in the nervous system (human TELENCEPHALON, CHOROID PLEXUS; CEREBROSPINAL FLUID), embryonic tissue, human BREAST CANCER; OVARIAN CANCER, suggest roles in cellular differentiation.
